Alright Now!
Lifetime network release the first photos for the Whitney Houston biopic film starring actress Yaya Dacosta. Dacosta bears a striking resemblance to Houston iconic 1987 self titled album cover ; sporting a white tank top, blue denim, and matching make-up.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and from the looks of the promo pics, I’d say Lifetime made a good judgement call when casting Dacosta for the lead role. Dacosta says there wasn’t much preparation for the photo shoot. “I just looked at her picture and did the pose. “
Lifetime also issued promo pics of the famous celebrity couple starring actor Arlen Escarpeta who will playing Bobby Brown in the tv production. Escarpeta co-starred in the box office hit movie “Final Destination’.
As you may know, Whitney and Bobby had a tumultuous 14-year-marriage; and it seemed to be spiraling further downhill when the two decided to film their lives on reality television in 2005. The couple divorced in 2007.
Actress, Angela Bassett who is the executive producer of Houston’s biopic film says the film will center around Houston’s and Bobby’s infectious love for one another.
Sounds like this will be yet another great movie that will RE-RUN for a lifetime. Will Be Watching!
